The future of Allan at Napoli will be decided next week.
The Brazil midfielder is a top target for Everton boss Carlo Ancelotti, who worked with Allan when coach of Napoli.
Il Mattino says everything will be decided in the coming week when Allan's representatives sit down with Napoli president Aurelio de Laurentiis.
A final decision over Allan's future will be made during the summit, though for his part the player is leaning towards a move to England.
Allan is rated in the €25-30m class by ADL.
